Friday, May 27th, 2016

Builder magazine has ranked Habitat for Humanity as the No. 1 private homebuilder on Builder 100, its annual listing of the largest U.S. homebuilders. This is the second year in a row Habitat has been recognized as a top builder of affordable housing in the U.S.

Each year, Builder compiles data from U.S. builders and ranks them by the number of closings for Builder 100. With 3,237 closings in 2015, Habitat topped the private homebuilder list and placed No. 16 on the comprehensive list.

"We are honored to be recognized as the top private homebuilder on this year's Builder 100," said Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity International. "This is a wonderful achievement for us and it could not have been accomplished without the support of our donors and volunteers, who help us empower families through shelter in every community we work in throughout the U.S."
